FOX Sports' Jay Glazer reports the Jaguars have begun contract negotiations with Falcons director of player personnel David Caldwell for their general manager position.
It's second straight year that Falcons GM Thomas Dimitroff has lost his first lieutenant to another team. One personnel man told Pete Prisco of CBS Sports that Caldwell and Steve Keim of the Cardinals were the two best GM candidates on the market. The two finalists in Jacksonville each landed their own gigs within hours of each other on Tuesday. Caldwell is choosing the Jaguars over the Jets, which speaks volumes about the attractiveness of the New York job. Caldwell's imminent hiring could be good news for Mike Mularkey, as the two worked together in Atlanta.

Looks like Dimitroff is building up his own GM tree. _________________"John Wayne and Rio Lobo are coming up next, just as soon as Jeffrey Leonard hits into a 6-4-3." (CRACK!) "Six...four...three!" -- Skip Caray
